The Chart of the Day belongs to Kimberly-Clark (NYSE: KMB). I found the consumer products stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks for the highest technical buy signals, then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 1/29 the stock gained 1.56%.
